Discover Wörgl: History, Market and Guided Experiences

Wörgl brings together an interest in local history, regional produce and guided activities. For your stay, you can decide whether to focus on a historical overview, a visit to the market or an outdoor activity. The options range from the museum and a visit to a production facility to hiking and cycling routes.

Economic and local history

Wörgl’s Free Money of 1932/33 holds a special place in economic history. It is a clearly defined historical topic. A guided tour of the Wörgl Museum takes a broader view, offering insight into the town’s history from prehistoric times to the modern economy. If you’d like to explore local history, you can choose between this wide-ranging overview and a focused look at Free Money. The historical focus thus spans everything from a single chapter in economic history to the town’s development across several eras.

Farmers’ market and regional produce

The Wörgl farmers’ market has been a well-established fixture in the town centre for more than ten years. It offers regional produce and homemade products such as honey, juices, schnapps and liqueurs. Visitors can also enjoy local delicacies from the Tyrolean Lowlands. This combines a look at specific products with a culinary experience on site. If regional food is part of your trip, you can plan the market as a separate activity: the product examples give you a concrete idea of what’s on offer, while the local delicacies let you enjoy specialties from the Tyrolean Lowlands on site.

Guided visits and outdoor activities

On the guided visit to the Stapf Experience Store and production facility, visitors tour the knitting and fulling workshops as well as the store. The visit thus combines insights into two areas of production with a tour of the store. Another kind of guided activity is the hike to Möslalm. It starts at the information office in Wörgl and follows a wide forest road uphill towards Möslalmkogel. The two activities are clearly different in focus: one centres on knitting, fulling and the store, while the other is an uphill hike.

Registration for the guided hike is required by 4:00 p.m. on the previous day. Check the available date and plan your registration accordingly. In winter, the hiking trail becomes the Möslalmkogel snow trail and is used by winter hikers and tobogganers. This seasonal use is another factor to consider when planning your activities.

Cycling from Wörgl

Cyclists also have a specific starting point: the Brixental Cycle Path begins at the Inn footbridge in Wörgl. If you’re including cycling in your trip, you can use this starting point to help plan your route. Alongside the guided hike, it highlights the clear difference between two outdoor activities: the cycle path begins at the Inn footbridge, while the hike starts at the information office and requires registration by the previous day.
